…Trump also suggested during the high-level meeting with Xi Jinping that the US, China and Russia should join forces to challenge the International Criminal Court, noting that their interests align.

    I’m not familiar with this source, though I can see its Ukrainian. Can anyone fill in where I can review their quality? Forgive me for being suspicious of the “Truth” channel. 😅

    I’m sure that’s true, billionaire media owners. C’mon…tell us more things and stuff to shape us into thinking more things and stuff.

    Moscow’s puppet president is starting to feel the noose tighten. When his term ends, so does his legal immunity and likely his freedom.

            Changing USA’s constitution requires a 2/3’s vote in both House of Representatives and Senate, plus ratification by 3/4’s of the States (i.e. 38 States).

            Right now, neither side has the numbers to pass a constitutional amendment.

            Republicans control 28 states, Democrats have 18, and 4 are split.

            At the Federal level, the House and Senate are both close to an even 50/50 split.

                It matters for passing a Constitutional amendment, but I do totally get your point. Rather than amend the Constitution to legalize an action he wants to take, he’ll just illegally do the action, then an army of talking heads will jabber incessantly some reasoning for how it is not illegal.

                How that plays out is uncertain, but that’ll be how they do it.

    the Chinese president made the comments during wide-ranging talks that touched on Ukraine and included Trump suggesting that the three leaders should co-operate against the International Criminal Court.

    Wait… What? Who cares about gossip about Putin when this is sitting right there?

      Trump just says dumb shit. Xi has no reason to fear the ICC, and America passed The Hague Invasion Act, which requires America to invade if an American serviceman is ever detained by them so Trump has nothing to fear outside America.
